Definitions

  • This invention relates to a clock producing circuit receiving active and standby clocks, in particular, to a clock producing circuit which is capable of suppressing a phase shift at the time of a change from an active reference clock to a standby reference clock.
  • active and standby reference clocks are supplied to a synchronous clock producing circuit used in a synchronous timing control system for an apparatus that high reliability is required. According to such structure, even if the active reference clock disappears (or comes into an abnormal state), the synchronous clock producing circuit is still able to produce an output clock by using the standby reference clock instead of the active reference clock. Thus the synchronous clock producing circuit can supply the output clock to the apparatus even if it can not receive the active reference clock.
  • the standby reference clock does not always correspond to the active reference clock in phase. If the change from the active reference clock to the standby reference clock is performed under the condition that the phase of the standby reference clock does not correspond to that of the active reference clock, the output clock has a phase shift or change at the time of a change from the active reference clock to the standby reference clock.
  • a clock producing circuit receives first and second reference clocks at first and second input terminals.
  • the clock producing circuit comprises first phase locked loop connected to the first input terminal to receive the first reference clock and to produce a first output clock having first phase according to the first reference clock.
  • a second phase locked loop has a digital filter with filter coefficients and is connected to the second input terminal to receive the second reference clock and to produce a second output clock having second phase according to the second reference clock.
  • a comparing portion is connected to the first phase locked loop and the second phase locked loop to compare the first phase with the second phase and to supply a filter coefficient control signal representative of difference between the first phase and the second phase to the digital filter.
  • the digital filter updates the filter coefficients according to the filter coefficient control signal so as to reduce the difference between the first phase and the second phase.
  • a clock producing circuit has first and second phase locked loops to produce first and second output clocks according to first and second reference clocks.
  • the clock producing circuit comprises a subsidiary phase comparator connected to the first and second phase locked loops to compare phase of the first output clock with that of the second output clock and to produce a subsidiary comparison signal representing phase difference between the first and second output clocks.
  • a phase adjusting portion is included in the second phase locked loop and connected to the subsidiary phase comparator to adjust phase of the second output clock on the basis of the subsidiary comparison signal so that the phase of the second output clock coincides with that of the first output clock.
  • a clock producing method comprising the steps of producing a first output clock according to a first reference clock by the use of a first phase locked loop, producing a second output clock according to a second reference clock by the use of a second phase locked loop, comparing phase of the first output clock with that of the second output clock to produce a comparison signal representing phase difference between the first and the second output clocks, and adjusting phase of the second output clock according to the comparison signal by the use of a digital filter included in the second phase locked loop so as to reduce said phase difference.
  • the conventional synchronous clock producing circuit comprises a selector 11 and a phase locked loop (PLL) 12.
  • the selector 11 receives two reference clocks A and B and selectively supplies one of them to the PLL 12.
  • the PLL 12 produces an output clock synchronized with the reference clock A or B supplied from the selector 11.
  • the selector 11 executes a change between the reference clocks A and B. For example, the selector 11 changes from the reference clock A to the reference clock B. Consequently, the PLL 12 produces the output clock synchronized with the reference clock B after the change from the reference clock A to the reference clock B.
  • the reference clocks A and B coincides with (or corresponds to) each other in phase.
  • the phase of the reference clock B does not always corresponds to that of the reference clock A.
  • Phase difference between the reference clocks A and B causes a phase shift and/or sharp phase changes into the output clock at the time of the change between the reference clocks A and B.
  • Fig. 2 shows time variation of the phase of the output signal before and after the change between the reference clocks A and B.
  • JP-A 9-64732 uses a holdover state of a digital filter included in a phase locked loop circuit.
  • the lock producing circuit is shown in Fig. 3.
  • the clock producing circuit comprises a selecting circuit 31, an input disappearance detecting circuit 32 and a phase locked loop (PLL) 33.
  • PLL phase locked loop
  • the PLL 33 comprises a phase comparator (PC) 331, an analog filter (AFIL) 332, an analog to digital converter (A/D) 333, a digital filter (DFIL) 334, a digital to analog converter (D/A) 335, a voltage controlled oscillator 336, and a dividing counter 337.

  • the selecting circuit 31 selects a reference clock A to supply it to the PLL 33.
  • the input disappearance detecting circuit 32 demands that the digital filter 334 comes into the holdover state when it does not receive the reference clock A.
  • the digital filter 334 reduces a loop gain of the PLL 33 in response to the demand from the input disappearance detecting circuit 32.
  • the PLL 33 comes into the holdover state.
  • the PLL 33 produces the output clock with a fixed phase.
  • the input disappearance detecting circuit 32 further makes the selecting circuit 31 select a reference clock B.
  • the selecting circuit 31 selects the reference clock B
  • the input disappearance detecting circuit 32 demands that the digital filter 334 returns from the holdover state.
  • the output clock is synchronized with the reference clock B.
  • a next-stage PLL circuit (not shown) connected to an output terminal of the PLL 33 can follow the changes of the output clock.
  • the clock producing circuit of Fig. 3 does not consider phase difference between the reference clocks A and B. That is, when there is phase difference between the reference clocks A and B and the change is performed between them, the phase shift occurs in the output clock as shown in Fig. 4.
  • a phase adjusting circuit comprises two clock receiving panels having the same structure. One of the clock receiving panels is used for an active system while the other is used for a standby system.
  • the active system produces not only a first output clock but also a timing signal according to a first reference signal.
  • the standby system produces not only a second output clock but also a collation signal according to a second reference signal.
  • the timing signal is supplied from the active system to the standby system.
  • the standby system produces a phase control pulse when phase difference between the timing signal and the collation pulse is larger than a predetermined value.
  • the phase control pulse is used for adjusting the phase of the second output clock.
  • the phase adjusting circuit of P2000-2614220A can limit the phase difference between the first and the second output clocks to the predetermined value.
  • this does not mean that the second output clock coincides with (or corresponds to) the first output clock in phase. That is, the phase difference is merely limited within the predetermined value.
  • a phase control system comprises two clock receiving boards having the same structure.
  • One of the clock receiving boards is used for a master board while the other is used for a slave board.
  • the master board produces a master clock according to a first reference clock.
  • the slave board produces not only a slave clock but also a window signal according to a second reference clock. Furthermore, the slave board adjusts phase of the slave clock so that each rising edge of the slave clock is within each high level period of the window signal.
  • phase control system of JP-A 10-187272 can limit phase difference between the master and slave clocks to the high level period of the window signal.
  • the phase of the slave clock does not always correspond to that of the master clock.
